Beautiful landscaping is everywhere; natural habitat has been preserved beautifully and seamlessly. There are over eleven miles of bike and walking trails within the community. Our condo supplies two bikes for your enjoyment of these amazing trails. We have additional bikes at our house, just one mile away, which you are welcome to if you need them. There are also tennis rackets and balls in our condo, beach chairs should you decide to visit one of the public beaches or beach parks, and a fishing pole with some tackle. There is also a cooler, blue ice, and other picnic necessities.

There are three parks in Bonita Bay, each equipped with playground facilities for young children. At the Estero Bay park you will also find a butterfly garden, historical features, more walking paths, charcoal grills and picnic tables, and a gathering building.

Backwater Jacks is a wonderful restaurant located in Bonita Bay at the marina. We highly recommend it. And of course, fine dining is easy to find in Naples, Bonita Springs, Estero and Fort Myers. Amazing shopping in Naples, and you will love the recently opened Coconut Point in Estero: great shopping and dining. The Promenade is located in Bonita Bay, a short walk from our condo, with upscale shops and restaurants. Our favorites are Roy's and The Lake House. Bonita Bay is home to multi-million dollar homes.

Owner info

Year Purchased: 2012

About the owner: We were born and raised in northern Minnesota, the home of long, cold winters. Needless to say, Bonita Bay has been our refuge!

Why the Owner Chose Bonita Bay, Bonita Springs, FL, USA: We had been coming to Wild Pines with our children every year for 22 years, since our youngest was 7. We love, love, love Wild Pines. We think it is one of the best neighborhoods in Bonita Bay. We have treasured every visit and decided, in 2012, to buy our own unit. E103 was available, so we jumped on it. Love the unit because of the amazing lake view. We also appreciated the fact that the two-bedroom units in E building are substantially larger than the non-corner two-bedroom units in A-D buildings. After enjoying a many months-long stay last year, we decided to move to SW Florida, so we bought a house. And we needed more room for visitors! Hence, our condo is available. We hope you love it as much as we have.
